M HKA gaat digitaal

Met M HKA Ensembles zetten we onze eerste échte stappen in het digitale landschap. Ons doel is met behulp van nieuwe media de kunstwerken nog beter te kaderen dan we tot nu toe hebben kunnen doen.

We geven momenteel prioriteit aan smartphones en tablets, m.a.w. de in-museum-ervaring. Maar we zijn evenzeer hard aan het werk aan een veelzijdige desktop-versie. Tot het zover is vind je hier deze tussenversie.

M HKA goes digital

Embracing the possibilities of new media, M HKA is making a particular effort to share its knowledge and give art the framework it deserves.

We are currently focusing on the experience in the museum with this application for smartphones and tablets. In the future this will also lead to a versatile desktop version, which is now still in its construction phase.

MesuRAGE au Musée Andy Warhol, Pittsburgh, 2012

Performance

ORLAN reactivates the ORLAN-Body Actions in a reenactment of the institutions MeasuRAGEs at the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh on the occasion of the Factory Direct exhibition. The concept of this MeasuRAGE is to measure the work of the body during the artist’s act of creation. This new MeasuRAGE is augmented with the records from ORLAN’s body obtained through the use of electronic armbands. The movie of ORLAN’s performance is shown with two 3D visualizations : two virtual models of ORLAN’s flayed body (left and right sides) show the action from a scientific and analytic angle. The Andy Warhol museum associated ORLAN with the BODYMEDIA company. This Pittsburgh based company produces electronic armbands that allow the watching and recording of data such as the spent calories, emitted heat, heart pace, action strength and intensity etc.
